Yeah... The sales of energy beverages that contain alcohol really predict success for this. Asked why you'd buy a beverage containing both caffeine and alcohol, customers typically responded that they wanted to stay awake longer so as to drink more. Takes all kinds I guess.

I fell for it, though I noticed that Percocet was mispelled. I looked up the description on wiki, and came to the conclusion that it was a new formulation cynically designed to increase sales. (I read DrugMonkey perhaps too much...)Reminds me of the days when I watched co-workers grind up some of the truck stop uppers with Jolt soda to try to stay awake thru our 16 hour days glued to our CAD workstations. 3 pills to a can was the rule.

HAHA the other day one of my fellow pharmacy techs and I were talking about how we wish we could type a dummy script for something like a Snickers bar just to have a label that says to eat candy. Our computer system won't allow for any fake scripts to be typed (which is good, really, I'm not complaining!) - though that also means no "test claims" to see if something is covered.

I'm guessing that this was actually probably typed by an employee of the dentist just being silly. I love it...going to have to print out that image and show the pharmacist I work with who would appreciate the humor.
